This A Blast From The Past
I was 18 when I wrote this how lame lol
Wow! I feel corny lls...but I wanted to share any ways
so tell me what you think and be honest :)
Did you hear those words underneath the loud lyrics
or was you just a victim of your inner desires
that held you hostage in this game
of supply and demand.
We’re you oblivious, or did you just lack self-control.
Either way you didn’t walk to the beat of
your own drum and now you stand still
in line wondering how did you get here in the first place.
See your conscious mind told you
that it wasn’t okay to buy that, but the
waves within sound system told you otherwise.
While you thought you were
listening to Janet Jackson over those speakers,
there were subliminal messages that attacked
your mind like a plague on your immune system.
With your brain occupied, your reasoning becomes impaired
leaving you capable of buying any
and everything the store has to offer.
When you realized you were home
your brain took back over and as you go
to open your bags: a Mariah Carey CD
Who the f ck bought that!

I loved it and i laughed out loud at the last line. Classic!
@Mizrepresent....That sad thing is that it's a true story lls
It wasn't corny brother. I thought that you showed significant insight to be only 18. When I was 18 I was all hormones.
@Reggie.....Thanks I feel alil better now lls
I too know the feeling, and I also found it amusing whenever I reflect back on my poetry during my early years. Both good and bad.
Pretty good prose, in my opinion. Very truthful.
@Don....Thankyou :)
@Champ25 great post as usual;)
